Hi Banwa
Had me scratching my head for a minute
That would be the computer games I bought the kids. I was trying to figure out which column to put it in on my list and although I bought games the intention was they're for Xmas.
The kids actually swiped them off me but gave me older games I can still trade in towards their Xmas pressie

The lights for my bike have been harder to categorise, I've temporarily put them under school accessories :think:

Hello diary
It's lunchtime and I'm feeling frustrated :mad:
I'm throwing everything I can at this house to try and get it looking lovely for when it goes on the market (maximum value and all that jazz) and it feels like I'm getting nowhere
I hate having all this debt, we could have moved years ago if we weren't so young and silly.

Now I feel a bit better
There's nobody about for me to let off steam to so this is as good as any a place
Oh and I hate stripping wallpaper!!

Don't beat yourself up too much. Being young and silly is part of the lessons of life. If you didn't live through it then you probably wouldn't believe it really happened to anyone. Take the lessons that life has taught you and make them into a positive learning curve.
You are focused now and will reach your goal in time but it is a marathon not a sprint, so enjoy and embrace the scenery along the way, it will give you so many memories and you will appreciate everything you've got and worked so hard to achieve.
